It took me a while to get used to Terry Pratchett's verbose humor; being a geek made it a lot easier, I think, to get into the quirks of Discworld than your average fiction reader. After a while, I really got to like the main characters: bumbling Rincewind, the indefatigable Twoflower, and The Luggage :)

While only 5 of the 38 Discworld novels are considered YA, and Color of Magic not counted as one of these 5, I thought this one fairly tame (any nudity indistinct--"blurred," if you will, by the lack of specificity), and suitable fun for any teenage person with a decent grasp of British humor.
